I am absolutely in love with the mineral paints from Tommy Art. I started to use these gorgeous paints a couple of years ago as a more cost effective alternative to the Citadel colours. I now use a mixture of both as standard for all my customs.
The paints come in 140ml containers for just £7.43 each which makes them really cost effective. They also have a proper lid that you can unscrew and remove without it flicking onto you, not closing properly etc. This means they are clean and easy to use and won't dry out quickly. They also have a brilliant range of rich mineral colours that allow for you to create all kinds of gorgeous horse colours.
The other thing I love about them is that they can be used for both hand painting and airbrushing. A few years ago I did a video review where you can clearly see them being used for a variety of techniques: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL4HXzqJI1Y

One of my favourite colours is definitely the pink I've used in this video. It is so bright and vibrant and looks gorgeous on completed pieces. This cute necklace features in the video and looked adorable when finished:
You can see that it gives you a really nice matte finish, something I love to see in my customs rather than an over the top shiny finish (that's for OFs only in my illogical brain).
